I know exactly what you mean Cecil...sad but true. I can't count the number of times of heard it recommended on these sites that you should stock shovelhead catfish to control an overpopulation of bluegill or to stock 20lbs of fathead minnows twice a year to feed a stunted bass population in an acre pond. Recently, somebody told a guy with a 15 acre pond to stock some carp for forage or to trap some minnows and crayfish from the nearby creek. I even heard to stock bullfrog tadpoles for forage.

My bass fishing buddies look at me like I'm Hannibal Lector when I talk about eating bass fillets.
